POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy5 months agoA. If your 4-month-old baby is having loose motions while on formula milk, it could be due to:
Formula intolerance (some babies react to a particular brand or cow’s milk-based formula). Lactose sensitivity (some babies have difficulty digesting lactose in formula). Infection or stomach bug (viral or bacterial). Overfeeding (too much formula can lead to loose stools). What You Can Do: Check the Formula: Try switching to a lactose-free or hydrolyzed formula (after pediatric consultation). Give Frequent Feeds in Small Amounts: Avoid overfeeding, as it can worsen diarrhea. Keep Baby Hydrated: Continue breastfeeding (if possible) or formula in small sips to prevent dehydration. Use ORS (Only if Advised by a Doctor): If the baby is passing too many watery stools, consult a doctor for the correct ORS dosage. Maintain Hygiene: Ensure bottles and nipples are sterilized properly to avoid infections. Monitor for Warning Signs: If the baby shows signs of dehydration (dry lips, fewer wet diapers, excessive drowsiness) or if loose motions continue for more than 2 days, seek medical attention immediately.
